Hello!

I’ve added a new custom forum main page with some bb-codes instead of the default main page and I get a little disapointment, I can’t find out how to change the forums root page which redirect to mysite/forums instead of mysite/mynewmainforumpage.

Is it possible to do it?

Thanks!

Hi!, I need to do this in my wordpress. I’ver already installed rpb-chessboard and bbpress-do-short-codes plugins, but i don’t know where i have to call function
add_filter (‘pw_bbp_parse_shortcodes_cap’ , ‘publish_topics’ ) ;

When I active bb-press-do-shot-codes [pgn] and [fen] sections were disappeard.

Thanks!

Hi, May I know where can I get Function.php file? I couldn’t find it. And is it necessary to paste the code below into the file?

function jm_bbp_shortcodes( $content, $reply_id ) {
return video( $content );
}
add_filter(‘bbp_get_reply_content’, ‘jm_bbp_shortcodes’, 10, 2);
add_filter(‘bbp_get_topic_content’, ‘jm_bbp_shortcodes’, 10, 2);

This post happened 2 years ago. Is there anything new that I need to do?

Since are buddypress and bbpress now cooperating I thing there is more compatibility in their Plugins. When I put a media Link to buddypress wall it shows in player (Video and audio).

But bbpress only has an option to embed media which maybe even mostly work but on buddypress the media link than appears as code (Video scr = ….and so).

Why doesn’t bbpress use just mediaelements.js script as core from WP and maybe ads oEmbed instead?

There is no possible to have similar design in both.

eather buddypress shows links in Player or bbpres.
Any Idea?

Also there is a problem to have this also in comments.

jetpack makes also codes. It shows it in player but in buddypress stream again (video src=…)

Is there any solution to have media Links and embedded elements in the same way on buddypress, bbpress and comments?

Thankfully for any Idea :o)

With my bbP Toolkit plugin an admin or moderator could force that for a specific user.
If you want this automated for an existing forum and the existing topics, you would find the necessary code in my plugin.
But probably you want to somewhere keep a record of the users that clicked this button so that for every new topic, that user also gets subscribed automatically.

Thinking of it, it might be easier to create an extra capability/role, apply them to users that want to have a ‘subscribe-all’ and then on every new topic creation check that and add the subscriptions…

Just some ideas, no codes, but I hope it gives you a start.

We are running WordPress 4.7.3 with bbpress 2.5.12 at http://one-name.org. This mysql error started appearing last night when accessing any forum, topic or reply. I believe it relates to the ‘AND ((()))’ clause:

[Pascal Casier]

So it’s display only ? But the input of the topics and replies is happening somewhere in a ‘normal’ bbPress forum, right ?

I think you need to create a theme that only displays what you need. It will be easier then just displaying everything with the shortcodes.

Step-by-Step Guide to Creating a Custom bbPress Theme

I’m going to use bbPress but via shortcodes so that only topics and posts within the topics are displayed on pages. I don’t want the full Forum Root, Forums, Topics etc., displayed on a page. so I’m going to create individual pages for each topic assign the bbpress shortcode for the topic and posts. So is it really necessary to do page/slug assignments in bbpress setup and have the full thing displayed even though I’m not going to use the full bbpress forum display structure and I certainly don’t want to the public to see it.

or does anyone have any other suggestions on how to accomplish this?

The “forum” will the individual Page, the Topic will be the posts from users on the assigned page. there won’t be an actual “topic” for each forum since the forum is the topic.

Hi There,

My client had reported a strange issue that started recently. If I navigate to the forum page, then login to WP, the WP admin bar displays at the top as normal. When I navigate back to the forum page after logging in, the admin bar does not show up on this page only until I refresh the page. At first I thought it was a caching issue with a Autoptimize cache plugin but it still occurs after I deactivate.

There is an error logging for bbPress repeatedly:

I used the repair forums tools one by one and now all the forums/topic/replies content is not displaying but the count is correct for each forum/topic, when I go into any of the forums/topics it says “Oh bother! No topics found here”.

I’m currently setting up a test site to strip it down and see if I can find the cause but I wanted to post this to make sure it isn’t a general bbPress issue with the SQL statement. Any help would be appreciated.

Wordpress version: 4.7.3
bbPress version: 2.5.12

Now when i go to “Forum” it jumps zu a empty page that says “The site http://www.gamingtournamentleague.com does not work”. Wenn i go the “New Forum” i can add a Forum but wenn i go than to preview it shows me again “The site http://www.gamingtournamentleague.com does not work”.

I changed the theme, i also deleted the plugin and i use shortcodes but nothing works…

WordPress 4.7.3 running Lana Blog theme.
BBpress Version 2.5.12
Link: bcompetitive.in

I am unable to make the sidebar work on my forum pages. It works if I use short-codes for forums, but you know it is not practical. I tried editing page.php with code if_bbpress. That gives me a sidebar below the forum.
I tried bbpress wp tweaks and nothing happened.
I copied pagewith sidebar template from the theme and renamed it as bbpress.php, nothing happened.
Can anyone help?
I am absolutely new to coding.
I wish to have same sidebar as that of blog.

[u_Oi]

It happens because you are creating two pages with the same url… I mean, bbpress has a root and also shortcodes, so you can create an index forum or main page forum using shortcodes but they always going to the root (/forums) and you also have a page called (/forums). You can see what I said if you try breadcrumbs from the topic to the root…

[DragoWeb]

Hi Robin, and thanks a lot for your answer. I spent thours trying to achieve this but without success. The search just always returns results from all forums. I must confess I’m a beginner with PHP… But, is there any chance that this feature could be added in your “bbp additional shortcodes” plugin. Something like [bbp-search forums='10,12,15']. I just discovered your plugins on your website and you did an amazing work. Of course I’m ready to give some donation for that but I like to know if this is possible or not first 🙂 But maybe it’s not as simple… Thanks

[phil49]

Yes,

If your remember, I have a page dedicated to Members and protected by a password (with or without it doesn’t make any difference either, of course), and the 3 following pages on the which I simply pasted the relevant short codes:
– “Forum” which is the default bbpress root page, I simply added a shortcode for the connection widget thanks to a plugin otherwise I couldn’t have done it on this specific page (but my VM doesn’t have it and again it makes no difference)
– “Registration”
– “Reset password”

Regards,

Philippe

Hey oyegigi,

Thanks for this, it works like a charm. I used the plugin “Shortcodes in Menus” as a quick solution to output to a menu.

Would be great if you could amend the code to show, only if user is logged in?

Thanks again!

[Robin W]

lots of shortcodes available for putting into pages and posts

Shortcodes

and I have additional shortcodes in my style pack plugin

[Md Sadiqur Rahman]

bbp additional shortcodes plugin solved the problem 🙂

[dropshot]

Customize your Forums root. Partner with a WordPress Page and use Shortcodes for more flexibility.

What does this mean??

I’ve set the forums root to “forums”. Then I’ve created a WP-page with slug “forums” and included some shortcodes.

The WP-page is ignored, so content displayed on /forums is the bbpress default index page.

What does this mean: “Partner with a WordPress Page and use Shortcodes for more flexibility.”??

How do I replace the default index with a WP-page?

[Robin W]

you may need to add this to your functions file to get it for particpants

add_filter (‘pw_bbp_parse_shortcodes_cap’ , ‘publish_topics’ ) ;

[Robin W]

This used to work, see no reason why it should not still be fully functional!

[yo35]

Hi,
Is it possible to use WordPress shortcodes in bbPress posts? (I mean either native WordPress shortcodes such as [caption][/caption], [gallery ...], or shortcodes defined by third-party plugins).
To be more precise, I’m the author of a WordPress plugin that allows to insert chess diagrams and/or chess games in WordPress posts/pages (see https://wordpress.org/plugins/rpb-chessboard/). I would like to extend to have chess games/diagrams in bbPress posts.
Thank you beforehand.

[Robin W]

if you are happy with css codes then

Otherwise the bbp style pack will let you change it, and much else besides

I use polylang plugin to create a two language site: English and Arabic. I installed bbPress and created two index pages using short codes: one that is linked to the Arabic home page and the other is linked to the English home page (in the main menu). But I used the same short code. Now all new forums appear on each of the pages regardless of the language. I do not have a language selector for new forums (or any forums for that matter). I am not sure how to get the new forum to appear in its specific page. Please note that this is my first site, I am practically a novice… So feel free to guide me to the right approach. May

Hi and thanks for your quick answer.
I have child theme and I can copy bbpress theme inside it.
I’d be thankful if you tell me how can I use these codes.
Please consider that I want to let Keymaster and topic owner to edit topic tags.
